Words of warning - you may well be in line for a spot of severe wedge withdrawal syndrome if you do sell but all in all the move to a Griff is worth it IMO.....is this heresy on the wedge forum ??

So, yet another one we won't be able to hear coming

Would love to take it off your hands, starting to think owning 2 would be the best option - saves withdrawal symptoms - unfortunately think a divorce would follow soon after...

Serriously - I had a Griff 500 and came back to the Wedge. It was fun but not the real thing.

Don't listen to these heathens Greg j/k The GriffvWedge debate has been done to death before but I will add that you will never know what Griff grass tastes like unless you change allegiances......and what sweet grass it is....

Don't worry too much about the sound factor if you go for a 500 either, I had my precats removed and silencer replaced with straight thru pipes. Sounds almost as good as my 400 did with sports exhaust.

The Dark Side awaits your arrival.

Zorro ole chap, Please don't insult us. The Wedge is often considered the TVR family runt so I believe "we are the Dark Side". Whilst the Griff is a beasty it's really quite a nice little beasty compared with the Big Bad Wedges.
Seamus don't do it 2 Wedges is dangerous - absorbs money, gives heartache - just got ride of the series 1 350. The knackered 280 chassis/shell next and then down to the SEAC and the Rally 460 - phew!

I would've placed the wedge fraternity in the role of 'The Rebels' but looks like you wanna play The Empire....

Hey - just kidding.

All TVR's are great car's ...

I had a Griff 500 for 3 year's and loved every min..

Just fancied a change - so bought a SEAC ... nearly
bought a T350C but maybe when I'm bored of the SEAC
- I will (in 3 year's time..as this seems to be my car boredom cycle).

You will loved the Griff - it's like a smoother version of the Wedge .. all the rough edges files off.

If you have had a Wedge then you will need a sports exhaust.
